About This Podcast

Talk Dirt To Me is the no-filter podcast where two working farmers pull back the curtain on real American agriculture. Hosts Logan Hanks and Dr. Bobby Lee Hanks share boots-on-the-ground insight from running a full-time corn and soybean operation and a working cattle herd. Each week they dive into the business and lifestyle of modern farming. Row crops, beef cattle, agronomy, equipment, ag policy, markets, and rural grit with unfiltered stories, lessons learned, and interviews with farmers, ranchers, and ag industry leaders shaping the future of food, products, and fiber.
